Describe what the holiday of Thanksgiving is like at your home? What do you eat? Where do you go? Who eats with you? What is the best part of the day? What activities does your family share on that day?
During Thanksgiving, my parent gets a day off from their work. Also, my grandmother and grandfather will usually come to American two to a week before Thanksgiving and stay for half a year. Many times, during thanksgiving my family went to Pittsburgh to buy foods. And at night we will have a large table full of foods. All the family members will sit around the large table enjoy the foods and talk. I will consider the best was the dinner because foods are the best and plus, we can talk to all the family members. While my parent prepares the food, my sibling and me will play around until it's time to start the wonderful dinner. And we will be said “Thank you” to every member in the family. I will say that Thanksgiving is in my list of my favorite holiday. Angel Chen 6/7th period

And when we have thanksgiving dinner isn’t until about 4:00-5:00 and it the morning we wake up early and we go out to hunt for some deer.The best part of thanksgiving day is probably just spending time with my family and having fun. We also go out before or after dinner and we play a few games of basketball and pass football.And before dinner we also started a thing last year we’re me my dad and my sister have a competition to see who can shoot the bow the best.
What me and my family do is we eat in the living room and me and my little sister put on a dance, this year we are charging are family a dollar. We eat cranberry sauce, turkey,macaroni and cheese, cheese cake, apple crisp, pumpkin pie. The people who enjoy Thanksgiving with us are my brother and sisters, my aunts and my dad my mom. Before they get there me and my sister curl up on the couch and drink hot chocolate and watch the Thanksgiving parade, while my mom starts the cooking. She peeks in on us and watches some of the parade with us too.
When me and my family have Thanksgiving we eat in the dining room. It is at my house and my whole family comes over. Awe eat turkey, mash potatoes, gravy, rolls, green beans, corn, stuffing, and my grandma always makes the best iced tea. Me and My cousin always sit together and eat dinner. After dinner we always watch football and play with the dogs outside if it’s warmer. We also watch the dog show and parade. I enjoy getting to see my family on Thanksgiving and i am very thankful for what i have. -Allyson Sutton 1/2 period
I never leave my house for thanksgiving because my family does not want to. We have everyone come down to my house. I enjoy all the food. I love having my family all there. Even though sometimes my sisters might fight we still have fun.
Usually my family comes over for Thanksgiving, but not this year! There’s some tea going on i’m my family that i’m not gonna get into at this moment. So, I usually sit in my room the whole time with my older sis and my cousin Emma, because the rest of my family is annoying. We eat Turkey, Stuffing, corn, mashed potatoes, and a lot more. The best part of the day is playing board games with my cousins and my Uncle Shane!
On Thanksgiving, my family goes to my grandparents’ house for lunch. My grandma lets me help make pumpkin pie sometimes for lunch. I don’t always get to help though because my grandpa is kind of a control freak. They make so much food and we all get so fat. My aunt and her boyfriend usually come. We sit around the table and talk for a long time, even after we are done eating. My grandpa can’t hear that well so he always screams to talk. The best part of the day is eating lunch. The food is so good, I wish we could eat that good every single day! After lunch, we watch movies and play board games until it’s time to leave in the evening. If we have any time left at the end of the day, we start decorating for Christmas at my house. -Abby Greene 6/7 Period
On Thanksgiving, my family is a crazy group of people because my parents are divorced and each side of my family has 12 people. I have the holiday like 4 times so I can have it with everyone. The food we eat is ham, turkey, mashed potatoes, and gravy. Sometimes we eat at my grandmas house but this year its at my uncles house. me and my cousins like to play around the house.-julienne raines
My usual Thanksgiving day plans start with eating breakfast at my mom’s parents house and watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. My favorite part about Thanksgiving is probably watching the broadway musical performances on TV during the parade. Then, we go over to my dad’s parents house for Thanksgiving dinner. My dad’s family is much bigger than my mom’s, so the house is always packed with people. My family members come in from places like New Jersey, New York, and Washington, d.c. I still have to sit at the kids table with my little cousins :( Later, we all eat dessert and my cousins and I put on a play or show of some sort just for fun.
It is really fun. We all get together and we talk about anything and everything. It is like one big get together. We usually eat turkey, ham, stuffing, mashed potatoes, green beans, pumpkin rolls and all kind of different things. I don’t usually have Thanksgiving at home. I actually have to Thanksgiving's, one at my Uncles house on my Dads side of the family, and one at my Aunts house on my Moms side of the Family. I eat with my cousins; we usually eat in a different room than the older people but we mostly focus on eating. The best part of the day would be the whole day in general but most likely the food. We participate in board game, helping cook, watching some kind of football game, sitting by the fireplace, running around, playing hide and seek, and just having general conversations with family members. Kate Eshenaur 6/7 period

Who eats with me my brother, my dad, my mom, My grandma, My other grandma, my uncle, my grandpa, my aunt, and my other aunt. Well since i lived in kansas before we didn't really have dinner with others except my madin family because they live in Pennslyvania. In my opinion the food and then we go play football with everyone that is willing to play. My family plays basketball, football, wiffle ball, and cornhole and then we go watch the thrusday night game on thanksgiving.

Our family usually goes to my Great Aunts house for thanksgiving. Also, we have a dinner at our house too sometimes. We have turkey, mashed potatoes, asparagus, etc. Usually my aunts, uncles, and cousins come to eat. As well as my grandparents come to eat. My favorite part of the day is when we get to eat food and okay games. We usually play Uno, Sorry, etc.
For Thanksgiving I normally go to my great Aunt Ruth’s house. Most of my family comes in from Ohio on my grandma’s side. For dinner we eat all the normal things like turkey and mashed potatoes. My whole family normally eats with us except for my uncles and grandpa because they like to watch the football games. We do not take a lot of time for dinner because my mom, great aunt, and I like to prepare for Black Friday. We start shopping right when stores open. The best part of my day is spending time with my family that I do not get to see every day. My family likes to play games and catch up on everything that they did not see on Facebook. My cousin Bryson (4 years old) likes to play Mario Kart but I hate playing because he always beats me. Maddie Rogers Period 1/2
For thanks giving my family celebrates by gathering together to eat food such as pecan sweet potato cake, turkey from my uncles farm, pretzel jello cake and much more. What we do to celebrate is we play Yahtzee and watch football together and cook in my grandmas big kitchen. Then we get ready for black Friday and head towards the Easton mall in Ohio and we then drive back and sing to songs and play road games. Some other things we do is play swords outside, ride skateboards, practice mountain biking on near by trails to my grandmas house and then we play football.
On Thanksgiving day, my whole family goes to my Aunt's house, and we all celebrate together. Everyone gets work off, and we have a good time eating turkey, gravy, potatoes, and other good foods. We all eat in the dining room and pray before we eat. My Aunt Nan makes the turkey. She has always does a great job. We watch a lot of football as well. The best part of this day in my opinion is just seeing and hanging out with my family. This has always been a fun and wonderful tradition.
Thanksgiving at my house I think is the best because of the food and my family. NOW what my family does is we go over to my mom's side of the family up to aunt Caca's house and help her get ready for dinner. One of the best things about is it that family for everywhere come over to her house. Like my cousin, aunt, and uncle come in from New York and my other cousin comes from Philly with his with and son. We also have the best food and the best thing about it is if you want to help cook you are always allowed to. I also love all of the food, we have turkey, corn, potatoes, green beans, gravy, SO many desserts and lots of other food. Kids also get to get food first then the parents and I am so excited to see my family very soon.
Thanksgiving we all eat food and celebrate all of the things we are thankful for. We eat turkey at our grandmas house. All my family from around the United States get together and eat thanksgiving. We all play cards before we get the good ol Turkey. It is a good time getting to see all of my family once a year, catching up on things so that why I love thanksgiving. Dominick Barone 1/2
durimg thinksgiveing we all gather together to have a feast and just eat then leave. i travel to my grandmas to eat withe them and my cousens. then i go to eat with my grandma and my brother.
On Thanksgiving my parents usually get off work and we alternate years to go to our grandparents in Dodridge county or our grandparents in Virginia. My mom works at a nursing home so some years she has to work so we travel before or after Thanksgiving Day. This year my Aunt and Uncle on my Mom’s side with their son are taking a vacation to Australia so I don’t know what we are doing this year as far as meeting family. This year we aren’t planning anything special, but sleeping in and having a relaxing day. When we do meet up with the grandparents in my mom’s side we usually go fishing or hunting on my grandpa’s farm.
For Thanksgiving my family does not do that much. Every other year my grandparents from my dads side, who are from Canada, do Thanksgiving with us. We go to our great grandmas house with my moms side of the family and have thanksgiving there. We always have very good food. Traditional Thanksgiving food, such as turkey, ham, stuffing, and mash potatoes, to include a few. We talk and go fishing at her pond. We also get some gifts from people. Some other distant family of mine sometimes come to visit also.We either have it at my great grandmas house, or my aunts house. Overall its a very fun day!
On thanks giving we either go to my aunt Rennes in Morgantown or to my aunt Paulas here in fairmont. This year we are going to my aunt Paula’s. The people that are eating there is year is my family and my aunt Paulas family. We will be eating turkey, stuffing, rolls, mac n cheese, and a lot more. The only thing I eat is the mac n cheese and rolls, I’m not a fan of thanks giving food. The best part of the day is seeing my family. On that day we eat and sometimes go to some of my other aunts houses and play games and visit with the people who came in. -Mia Stephenson 6/7 period
I’m almost never home on thanksgiving. I go to one of my grandparents’ houses. We can never fit everyone at one table. Some people end up on the couch or in another room. We always pray and then go get our food and eat. The food is usually turkey and some people eat ham or chicken. We have mashed potatoes and vegetables and casseroles. The people who eat with us are me, one or both of my parents, some of my grandparents, my aunts, uncles, and cousins. We don’t really do anything else but eat and talk to to each other. The best part is seeing everyone and the food. -Audrie Smith 6/7 period
what me and my family do during thanksgiving is watch football and eat. we eat turkey stuffing mash potatoes and gravy. we go to my grandmas house. My dad, mom, grandma, grandpa, great grandpa and my great grandma. when we watch football. my favorite time is when we eat because im fat.
The holiday Thanksgiving is not very consistent with traditions, but most of our family is there to celebrate with us and spent time with our family. We are busy all year around. Normally we would eat turkey, mash potatoes, stuffing etc. Sometimes we go up to my aunt's house and have Thanksgiving there. We eat with most of our family and friends. The best part to the day is the food. We normally watch the parade and spend time together.
My family does the same thing every year. Except this year i'm helping cook. I've cooked many times but i'm kind of scared. But every year we watch the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade and i love the snoopy float. But i go to my mom's side first and have dinner and then after i go to my dad's side of the family and also eat dinner there. at my dad's family we pick secret santa and that's really it.
At every thanksgiving we go to my grandmas, who I call mimi. We always have turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, rolls, ad green beans but we have other stuff that is different every year. My whole family comes in. My comes in from Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Texas, and Florida. Mot of us live in WV but a decent amount doesnt.
Every thanksgiving I visit with family talk and eat. We eat stuffing,turkey,green beans,etc. To close relatives. We also eat with some far away relatives. The best part of thanksgiving is when we eat. The only other activity is when we talk. Thanksgiving is a fun holiday.
On Thanksgiving my whole family gets together at my house and we eat a huge feast. We have turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, rolls, and green beans. My mom and dad side of the family all get together at my house. What we do is we eat then we usually go for a walk to my grandmas house right down the street to eat dessert and play games. The best part of my day is when all of my family goes to my grandmas basement and plays all kinds of boardgames and we just have a lot of fun.
On Thanksgiving, I go down to Beckley. Both sides of my family love there. First we go and eat at my grandparents on my dads side. Here I just play with my cousins while all the adult ladies cook. It’s kind of a small gathering. It’s just my dads sister with her husband and two kids and my grandparents and us. We eat then we go to my moms sisters. It’s the complete opposite there. At my grandparents, no ones allowed in the kitchen except for the moms. At my aunts, everyone just goes and talks in the kitchen and everyone cooks. The girls are in charge of the cooking but usually someone forgot something and the guys have to run to Kroger’s and get it. At my aunts we do Christmas the day after Thanksgiving. So, on thanksgiving all the girls go Black Friday shopping after dinner and do all the shopping for Christmas last minute.
On Thanksgiving, I usually go to my dads'. We normally eat Turkey, mashed potatoes, cornbread, green beans, and pie. Plus a lot of other things, that I may not eat. My family member at my dads' eat, including my dad, step mom, step sister, my 2 brothers, and my step moms' side of the family like her mom, step dad and her brother and then my dads' mom and her sisters plus her sisters' daughter and son. The best part of the day is going into a food coma. We don't really do any activities on Thanksgiving Day except communicate about our day! -JaNiya Bartlett 4/5
This comment was posted be Gamefreak or Jude D. Conaway. On Thanksgiving we usually have it at my house. We have turkey, stuffing, and some desert. But other families bring food to thanksgiving. On Thanksgiving we usually just watch football after we eat. The kids go upstairs to play and the adults just talk about recent events. And the grandparents tell their stories. I've got nothing else to tell so I guess that is that.
Usually my family has Thanksgiving at my grandmothers house. This year we decided to have Thanksgiving at our house. My parents always plan ahead, so they make all the food before the day of Thanksgiving. During this time my house is pretty chaotic. We have to make desserts and food which takes up the day. We also have to go to the store for drinks and utensils. On Thanksgiving day its just my parents, me, and my two sisters. Usually the food we eat is mashed potatoes, stuffing, turkey, potato salad, and pie. Before we eat we always say what we've been grateful for, and what we could always improve on. We don't do activities because we're stuffed and tired from all the food we ate. The best part of Thanksgiving day was just to be able to eat and enjoy being together as a family.
On Thanksgiving we usually go to my grandmother's house and eat a bunch of foods like turkey stuffing sweet potatoes mash potatoes gravy corn green beans and rolls but sometimes it changes in where we have it cause we decided to have it at my house this year. Angelia cheriza 1st block
What thanksgiving is like at my house is that we usually put up the Christmas tree by this time and that is what we did this year because we didn't have anything to do. This year we had a chicken and ham instead of turkey mashed potatoes and stuffing. This year we didn't go anywhere but last Saturday we went to my aunts house and my whole family got together and we had thanksgiving dinner then. The best part of the day was getting together with my family and getting to talk to them and people i haven't seen for a while. At the party we did some board games and played video games and watched the Clemsen game.
I went to my aunts this year but I usually go to my great grandmothers house before she dies of old age and eat there with my family besides my dad because he feels weird going to events on my moms side of the family. We eat ham and turkey with mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, stuffing, bread rolls, and ofcourse desert of pumpkin pie with whipped cream(optional) and sometimes we have icecream afterwards. How work is and stuff. Last year when I went to my grandmas for Thanksgiving one of my cousins got back from the Navy and he came back with a leg. It was horrifying bc ive never seen anyone without a leg before so I was kinda weirded out. -Lola Snider 1st&2nd period
Thanksgiving at my lovely home is very simple. My mother gets up at 8:00am and puts the turkey in the oven and begins cooking everything else. I help my mom cook after i clean the house. I offer to clean the house because i want it to look awesome when guests come over. After i clean though i help make the pies and whatever else my mother needs me to do. We usually have turkey, whisky glazed carrots, scones,(chocolate chip and pumpkin spice) stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry sauce, and pies! My favorite part of the day is when my family comes over. Although is was not the same because my great grandmother passed away last christmas so it was my first thanksgiving without her. I usually play cards against humanity with my cousins and their parents which i enjoy! Sidney Taylor 6-7th period
On thanksgiving, my family and I wake up early and begin to cook everything. We usually start our turkey at around 11am and let it slow cook in the oven for about 5 or 6 hours. While that is cooking we go to my grandmas house and eat there and talk for about an hour or 2. Than we come home check on the turkey chill for a bit than go to my other grand parents house. We usually just talk there because we ate at my other grandmas house. So after we leave there it’s around 4:30pm. So we come home and start making everything else mashed potatoes, green beans, stuffing, homemade Mac n cheese, rolls.
Thanksgiving at my house starts when we wake up and watch the parade. Then we bake for the actual dinner, and then my mom's family comes over to eat. We usually have ham and turkey with all of the other traditional food eaten on thanksgiving. The best part of the day is the desert. We don't do any special activities on thanksgiving.
For my family's thanksgiving, we go to Maryland. My grandparents and other family members live there, so we go to have dinner with them. Everybody helps cook, and everyone's responsible for bringing a side dish or dessert. For dinner we eat ham and turkey with other things my aunts like to bring. We watch t.v. for a bit, then once everybody's there, we eat. After we eat we play games together and talk for hours until we get tired and go home.
on thanksgiving, my mom works on thanksgiving while every one else in my family is off but when my mom comes back from work we go straight to my aunts house where we have thanksgiving every year sometimes my other aunt comes but most if the time they don't because they live in Indiana we wait in till every one gets there and what we do to wait is talk about sports,school,work. basally are life after we eat we eat dessert than we talk for a while or play a game or watch something on TV than will all go back home.
On thanksgiving I stay at my house and all my family comes over. We eat a massive diner that is so big we have to take two tables to fit all of it. Then some of my family comes over to play and we play board games to have fun, then we watch the Macy day parade and watch some football and it is amazing. Basically are life after we eat we eat dessert than we talk for a while or play a game or watch something on TV than will all go back home
Thanksgiving is always a highlight for the year in my opinion because the whole family comes together and eats homemade food. The thing is o Thanksgiving i always catch the stomach bug. doesn't matter when and where thanksgiving is i always get and i have to lay on my death bed while my family eats biscuits and turkey. The best thanksgiving i've ever had was in Florida with my central family and we had turkey delivered to the hotel room and we played cards and had a great time.
On thanksgiving we usually all get up around 8 and start cooking then while we are cooking the ladies go to Black Friday shop and we start to make the We usually have ham and turkey with all of the other traditional food eaten on thanksgiving.

On Thanksgiving my family and I stay at the house. We cook food and we have other family members come over. When we all are at my house we play games to keep us entertained until dinner is ready, i usually make the deviled eggs, the posta salad and the turkey. My Aunt Janna makes everything else. My sister and brother play with Sammy, our 9 month old cousin. When Dinner is done we eat and talk; then after that we all go home and we wait until tomorrow or another day to come home.
The holiday of thanksgiving in my home is like we are celebrating all together. We have a pretty big list of food that we eat. My family and I go nowhere unless we are meeting my aunt or uncle. My mom, dad, grandmother, grandfather, and brother eat with me and plus sometimes the dog would too. The best part of the day is being with my family and helping to cook. My family and I don't really do activities.
On Thanksgiving Day my mother and grandmother get up at 5 am to start cooking. They prep the collard greens, Star peeling the sweet potatoes, they get the turkey and ham seasoned. We wake up at will, get dressed, and do things to make it thru until we eat. Around 3 am dinner served. After we eat we sit and just talk and we just spend time together. My mom and my aunt then clean up and put the food up. And that is our day.

For Thanksgiving I normally go to my great Aunt Ruth’s house. Most of my family comes in from Ohio on my grandma’s side. For dinner we eat all the normal things like turkey and mashed potatoes. My whole family normally eats with us except for my uncles and grandpa because they like to watch the football games. We do not take a lot of time for dinner because my mom, great aunt, and I like to prepare for Black Friday. We start shopping right when stores open. The best part of my day is spending time with my family that I do not get to see every day. My family likes to play games and catch up on everything that they did not see on Facebook. My cousin Bryson (4 years old) likes to play Mario Kart but I hate playing because he always beats me.

For thanks giving my family celebrates by gathering together to eat food such as pecan sweet potato cake, turkey from my uncles farm, pretzel jello cake and much more. What we do to celebrate is we play Yahtzee and watch football together and cook in my grandmas big kitchen. Then we get ready for black Friday and head towards the Easton mall in Ohio and we then drive back and sing to songs and play road games. Some other things we do is play swords outside, ride skateboards, practice mountain biking on near by trails to my grandmas house and then we play football.
Nathan Robinson 6/7th period.
On Thanksgiving day, my whole family goes to my Aunt's house, and we all celebrate together. Everyone gets work off, and we have a good time eating turkey, gravy, potatoes, and other good foods. We all eat in the dining room and pray before we eat. My Aunt Nan makes the turkey. She has always does a great job. We watch a lot of football as well. The best part of this day in my opinion is just seeing and hanging out with my family. This has always been a fun and wonderful tradition.

Thanksgiving at my house I think is the best because of the food and my family. NOW what my family does is we go over to my mom's side of the family up to aunt Caca's house and help her get ready for dinner. One of the best things about is it that family for everywhere come over to her house. Like my cousin, aunt, and uncle come in from New York and my other cousin comes from Philly with his with and son. We also have the best food and the best thing about it is if you want to help cook you are always allowed to. I also love all of the food, we have turkey, corn, potatoes, green beans, gravy, SO many desserts and lots of other food. Kids also get to get food first then the parents and I am so excited to see my family very soon.
Thanksgiving we all eat food and celebrate all of the things we are thankful for. We eat turkey at our grandmas house. All my family from around the United States get together and eat thanksgiving. We all play cards before we get the good ol Turkey. It is a good time getting to see all of my family once a year, catching up on things so that why I love thanksgiving. Dominick Barone 1/2
durimg thinksgiveing we all gather together to have a feast and just eat then leave. i travel to my grandmas to eat withe them and my cousens. then i go to eat with my grandma and my brother.
On Thanksgiving my parents usually get off work and we alternate years to go to our grandparents in Dodridge county or our grandparents in Virginia. My mom works at a nursing home so some years she has to work so we travel before or after Thanksgiving Day. This year my Aunt and Uncle on my Mom’s side with their son are taking a vacation to Australia so I don’t know what we are doing this year as far as meeting family. This year we aren’t planning anything special, but sleeping in and having a relaxing day. When we do meet up with the grandparents in my mom’s side we usually go fishing or hunting on my grandpa’s farm.

For Thanksgiving my family does not do that much. Every other year my grandparents from my dads side, who are from Canada, do Thanksgiving with us. We go to our great grandmas house with my moms side of the family and have thanksgiving there. We always have very good food. Traditional Thanksgiving food, such as turkey, ham, stuffing, and mash potatoes, to include a few. We talk and go fishing at her pond. We also get some gifts from people. Some other distant family of mine sometimes come to visit also.We either have it at my great grandmas house, or my aunts house. Overall its a very fun day!
On thanks giving we either go to my aunt Rennes in Morgantown or to my aunt Paulas here in fairmont. This year we are going to my aunt Paula’s. The people that are eating there is year is my family and my aunt Paulas family. We will be eating turkey, stuffing, rolls, mac n cheese, and a lot more. The only thing I eat is the mac n cheese and rolls, I’m not a fan of thanks giving food. The best part of the day is seeing my family. On that day we eat and sometimes go to some of my other aunts houses and play games and visit with the people who came in.
-Mia Stephenson 6/7 period
I’m almost never home on thanksgiving. I go to one of my grandparents’ houses. We can never fit everyone at one table. Some people end up on the couch or in another room. We always pray and then go get our food and eat. The food is usually turkey and some people eat ham or chicken. We have mashed potatoes and vegetables and casseroles. The people who eat with us are me, one or both of my parents, some of my grandparents, my aunts, uncles, and cousins. We don’t really do anything else but eat and talk to to each other. The best part is seeing everyone and the food.
-Audrie Smith 6/7 period

The holiday Thanksgiving is not very consistent with traditions, but most of our family is there to celebrate with us and spent time with our family. We are busy all year around. Normally we would eat turkey, mash potatoes, stuffing etc. Sometimes we go up to my aunt's house and have Thanksgiving there. We eat with most of our family and friends. The best part to the day is the food. We normally watch the parade and spend time together.
Serenity Battin 6th and 7th
My family does the same thing every year. Except this year i'm helping cook. I've cooked many times but i'm kind of scared. But every year we watch the Macy's Thanksgiving day parade and i love the snoopy float. But i go to my mom's side first and have dinner and then after i go to my dad's side of the family and also eat dinner there. at my dad's family we pick secret santa and that's really it.
At every thanksgiving we go to my grandmas, who I call mimi. We always have turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, rolls, ad green beans but we have other stuff that is different every year. My whole family comes in. My comes in from Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Texas, and Florida. Mot of us live in WV but a decent amount doesnt.
Every thanksgiving I visit with family talk and eat. We eat stuffing,turkey,green beans,etc. To close relatives. We also eat with some far away relatives. The best part of thanksgiving is when we eat. The only other activity is when we talk. Thanksgiving is a fun holiday.
On Thanksgiving my whole family gets together at my house and we eat a huge feast. We have turkey, ham, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, rolls, and green beans. My mom and dad side of the family all get together at my house. What we do is we eat then we usually go for a walk to my grandmas house right down the street to eat dessert and play games. The best part of my day is when all of my family goes to my grandmas basement and plays all kinds of boardgames and we just have a lot of fun.
Ainsley 4/5 period
On Thanksgiving, I go down to Beckley. Both sides of my family love there. First we go and eat at my grandparents on my dads side. Here I just play with my cousins while all the adult ladies cook. It’s kind of a small gathering. It’s just my dads sister with her husband and two kids and my grandparents and us. We eat then we go to my moms sisters. It’s the complete opposite there. At my grandparents, no ones allowed in the kitchen except for the moms. At my aunts, everyone just goes and talks in the kitchen and everyone cooks. The girls are in charge of the cooking but usually someone forgot something and the guys have to run to Kroger’s and get it. At my aunts we do Christmas the day after Thanksgiving. So, on thanksgiving all the girls go Black Friday shopping after dinner and do all the shopping for Christmas last minute.
On Thanksgiving, I usually go to my dads'. We normally eat Turkey, mashed potatoes, cornbread, green beans, and pie. Plus a lot of other things, that I may not eat. My family member at my dads' eat, including my dad, step mom, step sister, my 2 brothers, and my step moms' side of the family like her mom, step dad and her brother and then my dads' mom and her sisters plus her sisters' daughter and son. The best part of the day is going into a food coma. We don't really do any activities on Thanksgiving Day except communicate about our day!

On Thanksgiving we usually have it at my house. We have turkey, stuffing, and some desert. But other families bring food to thanksgiving. On Thanksgiving we usually just watch football after we eat. The kids go upstairs to play and the adults just talk about recent events. And the grandparents tell their stories. I've got nothing else to tell so I guess that is that.
Usually my family has Thanksgiving at my grandmothers house. This year we decided to have Thanksgiving at our house. My parents always plan ahead, so they make all the food before the day of Thanksgiving. During this time my house is pretty chaotic. We have to make desserts and food which takes up the day. We also have to go to the store for drinks and utensils. On Thanksgiving day its just my parents, me, and my two sisters. Usually the food we eat is mashed potatoes, stuffing, turkey, potato salad, and pie. Before we eat we always say what we've been grateful for, and what we could always improve on. We don't do activities because we're stuffed and tired from all the food we ate. The best part of Thanksgiving day was just to be able to eat and enjoy being together as a family.

What thanksgiving is like at my house is that we usually put up the Christmas tree by this time and that is what we did this year because we didn't have anything to do. This year we had a chicken and ham instead of turkey mashed potatoes and stuffing. This year we didn't go anywhere but last Saturday we went to my aunts house and my whole family got together and we had thanksgiving dinner then. The best part of the day was getting together with my family and getting to talk to them and people i haven't seen for a while. At the party we did some board games and played video games and watched the Clemsen game.

I went to my aunts this year but I usually go to my great grandmothers house before she dies of old age and eat there with my family besides my dad because he feels weird going to events on my moms side of the family. We eat ham and turkey with mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, stuffing, bread rolls, and ofcourse desert of pumpkin pie with whipped cream(optional) and sometimes we have icecream afterwards. How work is and stuff. Last year when I went to my grandmas for Thanksgiving one of my cousins got back from the Navy and he came back with a leg. It was horrifying bc ive never seen anyone without a leg before so I was kinda weirded out.

Thanksgiving at my lovely home is very simple. My mother gets up at 8:00am and puts the turkey in the oven and begins cooking everything else. I help my mom cook after i clean the house. I offer to clean the house because i want it to look awesome when guests come over. After i clean though i help make the pies and whatever else my mother needs me to do. We usually have turkey, whisky glazed carrots, scones,(chocolate chip and pumpkin spice) stuffing, mashed potatoes, gravy, cranberry sauce, and pies! My favorite part of the day is when my family comes over. Although is was not the same because my great grandmother passed away last christmas so it was my first thanksgiving without her. I usually play cards against humanity with my cousins and their parents which i enjoy!
Sidney Taylor 6-7th period
On thanksgiving, my family and I wake up early and begin to cook everything. We usually start our turkey at around 11am and let it slow cook in the oven for about 5 or 6 hours. While that is cooking we go to my grandmas house and eat there and talk for about an hour or 2. Than we come home check on the turkey chill for a bit than go to my other grand parents house. We usually just talk there because we ate at my other grandmas house. So after we leave there it’s around 4:30pm. So we come home and start making everything else mashed potatoes, green beans, stuffing, homemade Mac n cheese, rolls.
Evan Smith 1-2nd period
Thanksgiving at my house starts when we wake up and watch the parade. Then we bake for the actual dinner, and then my mom's family comes over to eat. We usually have ham and turkey with all of the other traditional food eaten on thanksgiving. The best part of the day is the desert. We don't do any special activities on thanksgiving.
For my family's thanksgiving, we go to Maryland. My grandparents and other family members live there, so we go to have dinner with them. Everybody helps cook, and everyone's responsible for bringing a side dish or dessert. For dinner we eat ham and turkey with other things my aunts like to bring. We watch t.v. for a bit, then once everybody's there, we eat. After we eat we play games together and talk for hours until we get tired and go home.
on thanksgiving, my mom works on thanksgiving while every one else in my family is off but when my mom comes back from work we go straight to my aunts house where we have thanksgiving every year sometimes my other aunt comes but most if the time they don't because they live in Indiana we wait in till every one gets there and what we do to wait is talk about sports,school,work. basally are life after we eat we eat dessert than we talk for a while or play a game or watch something on TV than will all go back home.
On thanksgiving I stay at my house and all my family comes over. We eat a massive diner that is so big we have to take two tables to fit all of it. Then some of my family comes over to play and we play board games to have fun, then we watch the Macy day parade and watch some football and it is amazing. Basically are life after we eat we eat dessert than we talk for a while or play a game or watch something on TV than will all go back home

Thanksgiving is always a highlight for the year in my opinion because the whole family comes together and eats homemade food. The thing is o Thanksgiving i always catch the stomach bug. doesn't matter when and where thanksgiving is i always get and i have to lay on my death bed while my family eats biscuits and turkey. The best thanksgiving i've ever had was in Florida with my central family and we had turkey delivered to the hotel room and we played cards and had a great time.
On thanksgiving we usually all get up around 8 and start cooking then while we are cooking the ladies go to Black Friday shop and we start to make the We usually have ham and turkey with all of the other traditional food eaten on thanksgiving. The best part of the day is the desert. We usually play traditional games like uno and other games but my favorite part is the food for sure everything at my grandmas house is from scratch
On Thanksgiving my family and I stay at the house. We cook food and we have other family members come over. When we all are at my house we play games to keep us entertained until dinner is ready, i usually make the deviled eggs, the posta salad and the turkey. My Aunt Janna makes everything else. My sister and brother play with Sammy, our 9 month old cousin. When Dinner is done we eat and talk; then after that we all go home and we wait until tomorrow or another day to come home.
The holiday of thanksgiving in my home is like we are celebrating all together. We have a pretty big list of food that we eat. My family and I go nowhere unless we are meeting my aunt or uncle. My mom, dad, grandmother, grandfather, and brother eat with me and plus sometimes the dog would too. The best part of the day is being with my family and helping to cook. My family and I don't really do activities.
On Thanksgiving Day my mother and grandmother get up at 5 am to start cooking. They prep the collard greens, Star peeling the sweet potatoes, they get the turkey and ham seasoned. We wake up at will, get dressed, and do things to make it thru until we eat. Around 3 am dinner served. After we eat we sit and just talk and we just spend time together. My mom and my aunt then clean up and put the food up. And that is our day.
